Dear Comrades:
The Swiss proletariat is following your gigantic struggles against the counter-revolution, against the White armies of the warlords and mercenaries of the imperialists with great interest. Your hard, successful struggles against imperialism, against the counter-revolutionary government of Jiang Jieshi and its allies inspires us to strengthen our forces for the realization of the tasks facing the international proletariat.
We will do everything in our power to thwart the planned attacks of the remaining imperialist States. True to the teachings of our great pioneers, Lenin and Liebknecht, we will attack imperialism, the capitalists in our own country, in order to relieve you. Only when the bourgeoisie is defeated in all capitalist countries, when capitalism is destroyed, will hardship, misery, and oppression come to an end for the proletariat. Only when, in all countries, the victorious Red Flag of revolution flies from the former strongholds of the bourgeoisie, only then will the danger of a new imperialist war and the imperialist invasion of the Council Union be averted, only then will the way be clear for socialist construction.
